While Romero cleans up, Normas understandably shaken.
Romero is CERTAIN its not Bob, but, well, only we know why.
Meanwhile, Norman is talking to Dr. Edwards… and actually being a good therapy patient.

He does drop that my mother and I have a very typical teenage boy/mother relationship, I think.
I think not, and so does Dr. Edwards, who is suspicious of that wording.
Edwards soon realizes Normans problem IS his mother, and, hey, took someone long enough!
Norman asks if he can make a phone call to his friend, Emma, which Edwards allows.
But are we surprised that he really calls Norma?
Thats just as well because Edwards tells him Norman denied the claim anyway.
Hes finally bringing Emma home to her dad.
When Dylan leaves, Emmas dad offers him an invitation to dinner.
But Dylan doesnt lie.
I kind of love Dylan being so honest.
Chick comes to Normas house claiming hes from the hardware store and can help with the stained glass window.
Norma is a little wary given Chicks state, but lets him in anyway because shes Norma.
Good timing, Norma!
Norma asks how therapy is going, and asks what hes being instructed to talk about.
Chick mentions knowing Caleb and Dylan, and Norma freely admits that Caleb is her brother.
Which is… probably not good.
At Pineview, Norman is again having what seems like a decent session.
Hes being helpful in group hes in a good mood, and why?
Oh, because Norma came, thats why!
Edwards tells him that he knows Norman called his mom when he was meant to call Emma.
He also tells him that they get a log of visitors every day… and Norma wasnt on there.
Edwards asks what Norman thinks of, well, Norman.
I think hes a weak boy who is easy to take advantage of, Norman answers.
Yes, Norman has slipped into Norma mode WHILE in Edwards office.
So, at least other people are seeing his issues.
Also, hey, did he kill Bob Paris?
Romero doesnt answer, but Norma knows the truth immediately and asks why.
Because I had no choice, Romero says.
Methinks Norma understands that a little too well.
Also having confrontation times?
She was embarrassed about her scar, which she shows off in all its stapled glory.
Norma is interrupted from her morning paper reading by Chick.
Hes here for some real talk.
See, that story about the dog and car?
And the fact that he knew Caleb and Dylan?
Norma tries to get him to leave, but Chick is firm.
He wants to know where Caleb is.
Does Norma want to make him pay for all the hurt hes caused her?
